Seymour Cray’s big super computer was crazy. It’s signals between components had to be timed by trimming long cables up to 1/16th of an inch at a time by hand and was basically interwoven with a giant ...
The Cray-1, released in 1976, was one of the most successful supercomputers of all time. The Freon-cooled computer was clocked at a heady 80MHz and capable of up to 250 megaflops -- much more than any ...
The megaflop-busting Cray-1 made computing history back in 1976. Crave's Nerdy New Mexico arrives in the atomic city of Los Alamos to meet up with with this supercomputing classic. Freelance writer ...
There was a time when the word "supercomputer" inspired the same sort of giddy awe that infuses Superman or Superconducting Supercollider. A supercomputer could leap tall buildings in a single bound ...
[Chris Fenton] spent a year and a half constructing a 1/10th scale Cray-1 reproduction. The famous supercomputer was meticulously modelled in a field programmable gate array for a “nearly ...
YouTuber and Pi enthusiast Kevin McAleer has created a unique Raspberry Pi cluster inspired by the Cray 1 Supercomputer originally launched back in 1975 and pictured below. The Cray-1 was a ...
From a performance standpoint we know building a homebrew Raspberry Pi cluster doesn’t make a lot of sense, as even a fairly run of the mill desktop x86 machine is sure to run circles around it. That ...
HPE is doubling down on the supercomputing game, announcing plans Friday to acquire Seattle’s Cray for $1.3 billion in a deal that links two iconic brands in computing history. The all-cash ...
The launch of the Cray-1 supercomputer was a seminal moment in computing history. The 160 megaflops Cray-1 came out in 1975, and soon was sold to more than 100 customers, making it one of the most ...
Cray is releasing a personal supercomputer the cray CX1 which will run Microsoft HPC Server 2008 operating system. It will start off at $25,000 and goes to $80,000 or more The CX1 chassis has enough ...
